Easter

Our Easter Sunday family lunch was especially nice this year. Ella sat up at the table with us, enjoying the Lamb Jam the most with morsels of food from everyone else's plates. She gave Granny K.'s famous coconut cake her seal of approval before sharing her one chocolate Easter bunny with everyone else at the table. (Did she think: Why didn't I have to share my roast pumpkin with everyone else too?). The rest of us were terribly impressed by Rob opening up his 1986 St Henri Claret and did our best to savour it. (It was wonderful!)

Ella enjoyed time in our rain soaked (yay, at least 20mls the night before) garden, taking the time to reacquaint herself with Joshy's antique Star Wars figures which seem to have resurfaced since the younger set have arrived. She can make them stand up now (very carefully) by herself and enjoys rearranging them while Joshy tells her which Battlestar they belong to.

Ella named her new Easter bunny Shoes because she especially liked his blue polka dot feet (that match his ears).
By 4.30pm, with no daytime sleep, things were becoming increasingly tiring.

We have been busy rearranging the house this Easter as a result of our new shelving being installed last week. This is the smallest of the 3 units built by Creative By Design, but the one we are most pleased with. Not only does it look beautiful but it has allowed us to rearrange all our art work in much better ways. This Harley Nelson work (showing a women dreaming story) finally looks like its found its home.

J & J have inherited our original wall unit and have been happily getting it settled into their home too.
